He said, “Despite contrary belief, I never fire the first shot in verbal warfare or disrespect. I end it with bombs that obliterate the original comments or remarks, but I never fire first. Live fighting, on the other hand, of course, I charge out the gate as I play in the NFL.”

The former double-champ constantly shares some online memes and trolls and is sometimes specifically called out for his controversial tweets and posts on his social media.

A recent controversy surrounding his deleted video

The UFC megastar is infamous for deleting several posts and comments which could lead to bitter dissension, thus giving people reason to sharpshoot at him. One such post garnered some great reactions.

Conor McGregor recently took down a video clip from his Instagram, where it presumably seems like the Irishman is receiving a cryptic act on his yacht.

The video showed a glimpse of someone’s head. McGregor then panned the camera over to the ocean.

The video went viral for as long as it was there on the platform and became subject to trolls and memes. Several UFC fighters like Henry Cejudo and Belal Muhammad also chimed in to diss McGregor.

Haters also troll McGregor for his current UFC form. The fighter is on a two-fight losing skid and he has won just one fight since 2016.

His last loss came at the hands of Dustin Poirier in their trilogy bout at UFC 264 when he (McGregor) severely injured his leg during the end of the first round.
